The Glory Goes

Well, the glory goes to those who do not seek it Revelling in midnight clothes among the wicked Picking scabs from off their skin and rolling holy deeply Into the rhythm of a song that does not end You remind me of something, a song that I am And you sing me back into myself When I wake, when I'm sleeping The song is a man and a woman and everything else And my mother is a good one, as they go She does not condone the actions that I do that she don't know She swears nightly before resting that I give her soul a testing When I sing this song that does not end You remind me of something, a song that I am And you sing me back into myself When I wake, when I'm sleeping The song is a man and a woman and everything else It's been years since I found it, I still know where it pounded My ear pressed to the chest of that one woman of song She adores me, she ignores me and I revel on In wonder at something so sweet and so long I like the places where the night does not mean an end Where smiles break free and surprise is your friend And the dancing goes on in the kitchen until dawn To my favorite song that does not end You remind me of something, a song that I am And you sing me back into myself When I wake, when I'm sleeping The song is a man and a woman and everything else
